Hey Guys, i dont know if this is possible, but im building an
intranet and there a page thats is going to link to lots of files,
but these file will be contantly changing, adding and removing. i
am wondering on that page is it possible to have a little window
with a directory browser to go through the files?.

I'm not sure what a 'browsing window' is exactly, but if you
want to display files dynamically then you will need to use a
server side script. Any scripting language you use will have the
capability to read the server file system and then create a list of
those files and allow the visitor to click on the link to open the
file.

what do you mean by "browsing window"? If you allow directory
listing for
that folder, it will list all files in that folder; it's a
"live" view.

that sounds like you're wanting more of a document management
system and not
an intranet - they're not really the same thing. Perhaps if
you explained
more of what you're wanting to accomplish, the purpose for
this listing,
people can give you better answers.

Here is my own private web site, note that this is just for
illustrative purposes it wont even be this directory or anything to
do with this address.

Ok but as you can see it is what i would like but
interactive, users will be constantly uploading new files , so
creating links is to hard, or i need something that can display
links and atomically update based on new files.

I also noticed something similar to this in c panel, on a
file browser, some people would know what i meant if that have
there own web space.

all that is is a folder that allows directory browsing; that
would be be
part of the server configuration (as to whether or not
Directory Browsing is
allowed).

i am using one called indexor (
Link) atm, but turn out i need one
that just displays the name not the type size and size, type,
does anyone know a neat looking script that shows just name
and the browsing functions, or know how to edit indexor to show
just the name?
